Unnatural: The Reverse

Chapter Two

What the heck is going on? Daylon yelled in his head as he was falling through the vortex. He eventually landed in the place where he started – in the unrecognizable Stonehenge structure. But something was different.

The sky was clouded. The trees were wilted. Everything just seemed... reversed.

Daylon ran out of the woods to find his own house abandoned. He walked down to the main road to find people rioting. He walked up to a person and asked what was happening.

"What's happening?" the man said, "What's happening is chaos. The weather is falling apart, the government isn't doing much better. See, climate change ruined the earth, so the Leader started a new program. He began to lead a conquest. A conquest to conquer every last universe in the multiverse. He's done it to many, but every time, we have to make that Earth like ours. But we always accelerate too much and destroy that earth."

"Who is the Leader?" said Daylon.

"He's the youngest Leader the world has ever had. I believe he isn't any older than fourteen. I don't know his name though. Nobody does."

Daylon ran. It had taken him about two hours in there and his family was probably worried about him at this point. He ran back to the Stonehenge structure and stepped into the circle. He was transported back to the normal world. He ran back to his own house.

Little did he know, he was being watched.

The Reverse men watched the kid to the strange Stonehenge structure that had appeared several days ago. Then he just disappeared.

"Well, what do you think?" one said.

"Well, I think that we should see what happens."

"Oh, I know what's gonna happen." A deep voice said from behind them.

"Uh, Mr. Leader sir! We weren't expecting you so soon!" a man said.

"It's the end of our world as we know it." Said the Leader "All those worlds we accelerated what happened to ours on, rifts between the multiverse opened on them. And they all fell months later, years if they were lucky. I say we invade this Earth, and move our race there. Then, when our Earth falls, we'll be safe."

"Sir, that's risky." Said a scientist. "we don't know what catastrophic events may happen to that world.

"This child led us to the universe that he is from. We follow through the Stonehenge structure, and we invade. Prepare the armada. That's an order."

Daylon ran to Zach's house. He banged on the door. Zach answered.

"Daylon?" Zach said, "Where have you been?"

"You were right. There is an Opposite Earth and it is terrible."

"Daylon, you didn't answer my question. Your family is worried sick. Where have you been?"

"Worried sick? Why?"

"Daylon, you've been gone for two days! Why do you think?"

"Two days? I just saw you like two hours ago!"

"Daylon, the last time I talked was when I told you about the Opposite Earth and the Reverse Humans. That was on Tuesday. Its Thursday now."

"There's no time, take me to your lab and explain everything you know about the Opposite Earth."

They ran up to Zach's lab.

"Okay, so here's the explanation for you being gone for two days but it only felt like two hours." Zach said, "Time works differently on the Opposite Earth." He drew a line. "That line is the two days that you've been gone." He drew a shorter line. "That is the amount of time you felt. This is because the timeline that world is in doesn't run parallel to our timeline. Events happen slower here. You said the Opposite Earth was in the middle of an apocalypse?" Daylon nodded. "That same apocalypse will happen in around fifty million years here."

"That's crazy," said Daylon.

"I know. We don't have a lot of time, we have to close that portal before –"

They heard a loud bang.

Two minutes earlier, the Leader led his army to the portal.

"This is the place." He said. The Leader walked over around the Stonehenge structure, drawing a circle in the dirt with a stick. He then stepped one foot into the circle and quickly moved it back. A large portal opened, swallowing the Stonehenge structure.

"My friends, we have found the bridge to save our people." The Leader said. "Now let's make sure that these people don't survive."
